About Bear Bear

Meet Bear Bear! This 4-pound senior male Yorkie has a vibrant personality that shines even in his recent struggles. Surrendered to the shelter due to his owner's inability to care for him, he quickly captured everyone’s affection during his vet visit for neutering and dental work. Currently recovering in his foster home in Chesapeake, Bear Bear has some arthritis that will be assessed further once he’s healed. He’s a social little guy who makes friends wherever he goes. Bear will thrive in a loving home where he can enjoy leisurely naps, a yard for sniffing around, and, most importantly, the attention he deserves. If you’re looking for a charming companion to brighten your days, Bear Bear is ready to bring joy to your life. Make him part of your family!
